Former Tech Institute director ascends Jalisco government ladder

After five and half years at the helm of the Instituto Tecnológico Superior de Chapala (ITS), Dr. Morris Schwarzblat y Katz left his post as general director on May 31 of last year to take on a new assignment with the state government’s new Ministry of Innovation, Science and Technology (SISyT).

Schwarzblat shepherded the budding tech school through a crucial phase of its growth, implementing programs and policies aimed primarily at encouraging students to excel in their educational pursuits, engage in critical and divergent thinking and develop the skills and tools needed to succeed in the world’s rapidly evolving job market and technology dependent business sphere.

While many among the institute’s student body and staff have expressed dismay at losing his strong guiding light, Schwarzblat is enthusiastically embracing a change of direction in his professional life.
